Hi all,
We've removed a lot of critical warnings in the past few weeks and
it's something that will really help us in the long term. It's now
time to focus on fixing all other kind of bugs. That's why there's

Hi all,
So, we're having a lots of release and it's easy to get lost between

+ Sockets: is it worrying to think about network
Hi all,
The release team met yesterday to talk about all the current issues.
Here are our conclusions.
New modules:

we'd like to see a good integration

If you're like me, you're probably missing the rough edges of an

Hi,
A few weeks ago, John Palmieri decided to leave the release team to get

During the first few months of 2008, a few Release Team members
